The Paule Project #4 - Tech Session 2

Season 2 · Episode 5

Tuesday, July 23, 2024 • Duration 17:58

Tech is the time to clean up the lighting looks and add in the details. Paule and Will continue to fine-tune the lighting for the show with the full company and crew.

On Headset | Season 2
The Paule Project

We're excited to unveil season two of ETC's On Headset, a new immersive audio experience where listeners can engage in real-time programming.

Our goal with this project is to bridge the gap between traditional classroom or "e-training" methods of console training and actual experience behind an Eos desk in a theatre. Whether you want to enhance your understanding of context or work on muscle memory, this console flight simulator caters to both needs. You can actively participate by typing along with the lighting designer’s instructions or passively eavesdrop on the magic as it happens.

This season features internationally renowned lighting designer Paule Constable and programmer Will Frost, offering lightly curated recordings of headset conversations during tech of the National Theatre's 2021 production of The Normal Heart. The play depicts the 1980s HIV/AIDS crisis in New York, focusing on activist Ned Weeks.

The National Theatre, the iconic London venue renowned for its rich history and groundbreaking productions, graciously granted us access to a perfect case study in theatrical lighting. Over the course of five episodes, listeners will delve into the behind-the-scenes process of lighting a show. From initial discussions about the show's concept and their collaborative process to the creation of lighting groups and presets, each episode offers insight into the intricate work involved. As they progress through programming sessions and tech rehearsals, Paule and Will refine the lighting design, adding effects and perfecting cue states with the full company and crew, culminating in a polished production.

We hope you find the series both entertaining and educational!

The Billington Files #14 - Act II Just in Time on May 7, 2018 at 3 PM

Season 1 · Episode 15

Monday, March 16, 2020 • Duration 43:39

In this episode: As time runs out the team finishes Act II!

We’re excited to introduce ETC's On Headset, a new audio series that enables listeners to program in real-time with a lighting designer as they construct the look of a major theatrical production.

Our goal with this project is to fill the gap between the traditional classroom or "e-training" methods of console training and actually sitting behind an Eos desk in a theater. Maybe you know where the buttons are and what they do but want to know more about how used in context. Or maybe you just want to work on your muscle memory. This is a console flight simulator to help with both. If you wish, you can type along with Ken's instruction, or, if you'd prefer a more passive experience, simply eavesdrop (you may want to begin listening to episode 12 when it gets really lively!).

This series features esteemed Broadway lighting designer Ken Billington and a lightly curated recording of the headset conversations during tech of the New York City Center Encores’ Me and My Girl in May of 2018. The recordings are broken into 13 episodes, which start as Ken begins putting cues into the console and end after the dress rehearsal—which for Encores, is about 90 percent of the lighting time allowed.

New York City Center generously allowed us to witness the perfect case study for lighting in theatre—a frenzied weeklong blitz to put on a full musical. The first 11 episodes are dry tech and tech rehearsals. We've provided a show file for each episode, if you’re starting at the beginning you only need the first, you’ll build from there. If want to begin, further along, use the file to match your starting point. The last two episodes are recordings of the dress rehearsal (somewhat combined with tech). If you're typing along, this gets a bit more intense. It's also where we realized that the recordings are pretty entertaining in their own right—Nancy Pittelman and her stage management team and Ken and his lighting team are true masters in their kitchens!

While the process is always fast-paced, Encores is especially condensed (as Ken mentions in his introduction to the series). It is the musical theater equivalent of a competition cooking show... here are your ingredients, you have 8 hours…GO!
